Fair Market Value Clause Samples

The Fair Market Value clause defines how the value of an asset, property, or service is determined in an agreement, typically as the price it would fetch in an open and competitive market between willing parties. In practice, this clause may specify the method for valuation, such as using independent appraisals, referencing recent comparable sales, or relying on a mutually agreed-upon expert. Its core function is to ensure that any transaction or adjustment based on value—such as buyouts, transfers, or settlements—is conducted at a price that reflects true market conditions, thereby preventing disputes and ensuring fairness for all parties involved.
